LOUISVILLE, Ii; ST. LOUIS. 3.
ST. LOUIS Aug liking numerically
pounded to-day, and Louisville downed the
champions with ease. Chamberlain. on the
other hand. was very effective. and though a
greater number of hits were made of him than
King, they were scattering and OF but little
avail. The home team earned all their runs,
while Louisvilles timely hitting was greatly
aided by loose fielding. especially on Robinsors
part In the first inning, when the bases were
81 ed by Kings wild pitching, Browning cleared
them by a beautiful drive for two bases to left.
Tie best features os the game were the battery
work of Cham berlain and Cross Boyle's splendid
handling of Kings hot shot, and Whites work
at short. The batting OF ONeill and Wolf was
excellent Score:
